Phil, I recognize that ship...funny. I have the current and full code listing that you posted on gameDev, I'll be taking a look at it right away. I'm pretty sure what I've already posted will do the trick but it still has to be put into the appropriate place. There is now a third page on that thread. I've made a slight change in how color is being handled.
